Profile
Interests: Writing, best therapy this side of sanity! Music; I don’t know how to read it but I sure can write about it!
I’m a MASSIVE dance music fan and think it’s a travesty that there aren’t more women in the business (giving opinion and making things happen rather than flaunting their T&;A). When it comes to dance music I can pretty much write about anything and everything from D n B to trance to funky, sexy or tribal house to nose-bleed techno to 90s garage to electronica to ambient chill out to nu-wave jazz to break beat.
